Woodruff, University of Augustin Kwasi Fosu, United Nations California, San Diego, USA University, WIDER, Finland The World Bank Economic Review is a professional journal used for the dissemination of research in development economics broadly relevant to the development profession and to the World Bank in pursuing its development mandate. It is directed to an international readership among economists and social scientists in government, business, international agencies, universities, and development research institutions. The Review seeks to provide the most current and best research in the field of quantita- tive development policy analysis, emphasizing policy relevance and operational aspects of economics, rather than primarily theoretical and methodological issues. Consistency with World Bank policy plays no role in the selection of articles. The Review is managed by one or two independent editors selected for their academic excellence in the field of development economics and policy. The editors are assisted by an editorial board composed in equal parts of scholars internal and external to the World Bank. World Bank staff and outside researchers are equally invited to submit their research papers to the Review. For more information, please visit the Web sites of the Economic Review at Oxford University Press at www.wber.oxfordjournals.org and at the World Bank at www.worldbank.org/research/journals. Instructions for authors wishing to submit articles are available online at www.wber.oxfordjournals.org. Please direct all editorial correspondence to the Editor at [email protected].
